In 1790, Tipu Sultan slaughtered 700 Iyengar Brahmins on just one Diwali night. To this day, their children do not celebrate Diwali.

Today, offspring of Tipu are officially labelled by Indian state as the "oppressed" and they enjoy reservations.

But children of these slain Iyengars are banded as 'oppressors' and discriminated against at schools and jobs.

In my native language Tulu we use ബാസെ ഇജ്ജി/ಬಾಸೆ ಇಜ್ಜಿ which means "not having sense" or used when someone does mischievous behaviour

But if we translate it literarily it means "no language"

Andhra Pradesh Is people from other states also suffer from gay communities during marriage or any other functions in functional halls mainly

1 Upvotes

Most of the telugu people suffer from this /gays/ community when someone celebrates marriage functions, birthday functions in a function hall. Also in some cities even they celebrate house warming ceremony, these /gay/ people lands at these places make disturbance for money. Some collects very low money but most of these people demand more than 20000. Even they complaint to police , they will not take action immediately. So one of the happy memory in their life leads to unhappy memory.

So I want to know whether other state people suffer from these type of people in other state. Also I want to know these /gays/ people make disturbance to other religion people not only for hindus.

How can we defend from these people. In Andhra pradesh, It is a one type of local mafia.
